Lets start with the Klingons. One of the most famous small Klingon vessels - the K't'inga is finally getting a bit old. After more then 300 years of service the Empire decided to replace it with the latest child of its production line, K'beajQ. Both vessels share a large portion of their technology and their basic construction blueprints, but the K'beajQ profits from latest shield generator technology and years of experience with the chassis. Fans of the old K't'inga will still be able to acquire it by dispatching a Topmey's storage containers.


Another addition in v3 - already promised in an earlier news post - is the Miranda-II! The Federation Mixed-Tech unit achieved if capturing Dominion Technology. The Miranda-II is what the Miranda once was, a powerful heavy cruiser. Her "Backbone" passive ability reduces damage taken from sources with a lower offensive value then her defensive value, that leads to a very durable vessel if fighting destroyer fleets. If damage reduction seems to be not enough for turning the tides the Miranda-II may still engage her "Blockade Breaker" special ability, greatly increasing the rate of fire of her heavy Quantum Pulse weapons! A powerful asset for every Federation fleet!


With all these new designs the Romulan Empire decided to give the Rhienn a small face-lift, too. A complete new model! A small gameplay addition has also been made. Booth Rhienn refits will now feature a new passive ability in addition to their normal effects. The Disruptor-Rhienn's Kaleh Maneuver ability increases her damage once every 2 minutes when opening combat, granting her superior hit-and-run abilities for evil Romulan tactics. The Torpedo-Rhienn gained the Predatory Strikes ability to deal increased damage against hostile cruiser - the Romulans never liked Akiras.


More details about Fleet Operations v3 will come soon, stay tuned!
